Care Coordination for Children who are Deaf/Hard of Hearing: A Team Approach
When a child is diagnosed with hearing loss, they suddenly gain many team members to help them develop as closely to a normal hearing child as possible: an Audiologist, a Speech-Language Pathologist, an Ear Nose, Throat Doctor, a Pediatrician, a Teacher for the Deaf, an Early Intervention Provider, and more depending on each child’s needs. Parents lose track of which professional is coming to see their child, on which day, and what do they do again…? This presentation will walk through using a Team Approach to providing services to a child who is deaf or hard of hearing. What information do other professionals have that might improve the services you can provide to your client/patient? What information do you have that will help other professionals improve your client’s/patient’s lives? Using a Team Approach will help our children improve their language and literacy skills and ensure they are ready to learn when they enter preschool.
- Explain how to conduct an in-person workshop on shared decision making and care coordination of all professionals serving D/HH children.
- Review about online readings and materials to prepare for the workshop.
- Describe about EHDI Program Goals and Objectives: 1,3, 6.
